Waddle is awesome - what a fantastic effort to get him out of retirement. Ditto Smithy - radio should supersede TV (once again) for quality commentary.

@Donsteppa Judging by the comments Indian cricket supporters don't get the concept of irony.
Not that this should be an earth-shaking new revelation.

My go to when I get bored on FB cricket pages is to point out that Kane Williamson averages more than every single Test batsman in Indian history.
That certainly winds them up.

Markham almost broke the Bannerman.
Other cool stats heard on Final Word:
- Elgar dismissed twice on first day of his last test.
- Stubbs dismissed twice on first day of his test debut.
- first time ever a team batting 3rd passed their first innings score before the end of the first day.

I read the Aus CEO (Hockley) has been a bit triggered by SA20 and proteas tour clash that he is concerned enough about health of test cricket that he wants to get ICC to make all test series which make up part of the WTC to be a minimum of 3 tests.
I'm not sure the 2 things are related, but by fuck that would be the best news for test cricket since I can ever remember.
Also talked about the big 3 redistributing some money. But, yeah right, we'll see how that goes.
In the last ICC revenue distribution deal, the Test Match Fund got disbanded. So, could see it as redistributing money they (big 3) 'stole' in the first place ...
FTR, nz was too big to benefit from that fund. Was aimed more at the Zim level.
-
so, countries will host 3 tests no one shows up to, rather than 2? that'll fix it.
